[MACCAA]

Original Cooper S,BMW M3,Subaru WRX STI,RX8,and Polo GTI would be the favourites.

I'm a bit surprised MACCAA chose the '307' 1970 HG Monaro over the 1970 '350 Chev' HG GTS Monaro (224kw/515nm, 1530kg, 0-100 7.5sec, 1/4 mile 16 flat - price in 1970: $4,174 )

At the time it was a matter of $$$$......

I've owned some unremarkable cars but these were probably my favourites for various reasons:

1. Commodore VH Interceptor - quickest car I ever owned, too many mods to list, ..just suprised I never died in that thing.
2. Alfa Romeo GTV6 - cost me a fortune to run, but the way the clutch engaged the gearbox, the sublime steering, ..the exhaust note etc made you quickly forget why you spent every cent you earnt on it.
3. Mk1 Golf - great litle car, race car suspension, loved it.
4. Peugeot 205 GTI - fun car, but quickly grew sick of the buzzy, bone-jarring ride and appalling French reliability.
5. Polo GTI - a mate recently remarked that my Polo (with go fast gear) probably would have kept up with my interceptor. Hasn't engine technology come a long way

^^^^ some one else that's driven an Alfa

1985 Alfa Romeo GTV : if I didn't spend so much on this I would have more cars

2000 toyota RAV4

1990 Alfa Romeo 33 8V (yes I was bitten by the bug)

1990 Alfa Romeo 33 16V (HEAPS better than the 8V..and corners like a MOFO)

2008 POLO GTI (could go better around corners .. but at least everything works and I hope it stays that way for a long time)

Front and rear swaybars will fix that.

[VW GTI]

Front and rear swaybars will fix that.

I'd do suspension before the bars if you're after handling.
